Teller of tales

January 25, 2025 |

the book Teller of Tales: The Life of Arthur Conan Doyle depicts an energetic man with many talents, many of them shared with Sherlock himself.

This compelling biography examines the extraordinary life and strange contrasts of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the struggling provincial doctor who became the most popular storyteller of his age when he created Sherlock Holmes. From his youthful exploits aboard a whaling ship to his often stormy friendships with such figures as Harry Houdini and George Bernard Shaw, Conan Doyle lived a life as gripping as any of his adventures.
